As I read stories like this I am reminded of the GW elites that want 90% of the world population to be removed to save the planet. I have to wonder with so many greenie weenies in the government that they are purposely exposing healthy populations to third world diseases.
Over the years I have noticed through my personal interactions that the eco-nuts, the Greenpeacers, the Global warming crowd, the ‘elites’,etc. all have this weird thing going on; where they think that they personally will not be affected by the ill’s and troubles that they wish and desire for the rest of the population.
Personally I have a ‘dream’ to be able to see the looks on their faces when it dawns upon them that they were wrong and they too were in the cross-hairs all of this time.
And on that day ...
Oh it’s a great feeling to see it. Short version...
Years ago I did a lot of work on BLM/landude issues RE: Off-Roading/OHV use. We fought to keep access open to all.
One of the major mountain bike groups of the time sided with the sierra club and helped ram through yet another closure against the will of the majority. The BLM then posted the area with ‘No mechanical conveyance” signs.
The mountain bikers flipped, pooped a brick and ran to their new best buddies screaming the blues that they were lumped in with evil off roaders. The Sierra Club replied “What did you think we meant? We told you no MECHANICAL. That meant you too.”
I remember feeling really good about that bit of silver lining in the cloud of closure.
